Abstract

An information processing system includes a processor configured to display pieces of time series information regarding respective work processes on a display, receive designation of timeframes of the respective work processes, determine comparison points respectively included in the designated timeframes of the respective work processes. The processor is also configured to, for each work process represented by multiple pieces of work data to be compared, mutually correlate the designated timeframes corresponding to each other, mutually correlate the determined comparison points corresponding to each other, and calculate a relative temporal position of each comparison point in the corresponding timeframe. The processor is also configured to make uniform a length of each timeframe of a corresponding one of the work processes and display, on the display, each piece of time series information indicating the comparison point at the relative temporal position.

Claims (35)

1 . An information processing system comprising:

a processor configured to

display pieces of time series information regarding respective work processes on a display,

receive designation of timeframes of the respective work processes,

determine comparison points respectively included in the designated timeframes of the respective work processes,

for each work process represented by a plurality of pieces of work data to be compared,

mutually correlate the designated timeframes corresponding to each other, mutually correlate the determined comparison points corresponding to each other, and calculate a relative temporal position of each comparison point in the corresponding timeframe, and

make uniform a length of each timeframe of a corresponding one of the work processes and display, on the display, each piece of time series information indicating the comparison point at the relative temporal position.

2 . The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor receives the designation of each timeframe after a start position and an end position of the timeframe are determined on a basis of a structure of a corresponding one of the work processes that includes at least one work segment and events, the at least one work segment being a segment defined on a basis of progress of work, the events occurring in the progress of the work.

3 . The information processing system according to claim 2 ,

wherein the processor receives designation of the events occurring in the work process, respectively, as the start position and the end position of the timeframe.

4 . The information processing system according to claim 2 ,

wherein the processor receives designation of the at least one work segment in the work process and determines a start position and an end position of the designated work segment, respectively, as the start position and the end position of the timeframe.

5 . The information processing system according to claim 4 ,

wherein in a case where one work segment of the work segments is designated, the processor determines the start position and the end position of the work segment, respectively, as the start position and the end position of the timeframe.

6 . The information processing system according to claim 4 ,

wherein in a case where continuous work segments of the work segments are designated, the processor determines a start position of a foremost work segment of the continuous work segments and an end position of a rearmost work segment of the continuous work segments, respectively, as the start position and the end position of the timeframe.

7 . The information processing system according to claim 4 ,

wherein in a case where incontinuous work segments of the work segments are designated, the processor sets a timeframe for each work segment and determines a start position and an end position of the work segment, respectively, as a start position and an end position of the set timeframe corresponding to the work segment.

8 . The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor predicts progress of a scheduled work process of the work processes on a basis of pieces of time series information included in the pieces of time series information and regarding corresponding ones of the work processes that are of a type identical to a type of the scheduled work process.

9 . The information processing system according to claim 8 ,

wherein the processor

displays time-series progress information indicating the predicted progress of the scheduled work process and the pieces of time series information regarding the work processes of the identical type, with a length of a timeframe of the time-series progress information and lengths of respective timeframes of the pieces of time series information regarding the work processes of the identical type being made uniform,

determines an area regarding each of comparison points mutually correlated and respectively included in the pieces of time series information regarding the work processes of the identical type, the area extending from a comparison point position closest to a start position of a corresponding one of the timeframes to a comparison point position closest to an end position of the corresponding time frame, and

displays, in the time-series progress information, the area determined regarding the comparison point.

10 . An information processing system comprising:

processing means for

displaying pieces of time series information regarding respective work processes on a display,

receiving designation of timeframes of the respective work processes,

determining comparison points respectively included in the designated timeframes of the respective work processes,

for each work process represented by a plurality of pieces of work data to be compared,

mutually correlating the designated timeframes corresponding to each other, mutually correlating the determined comparison points corresponding to each other, and calculating a relative temporal position of each comparison point in the corresponding timeframe, and

making uniform a length of each timeframe of a corresponding one of the work processes and displaying, on the display, each piece of time series information indicating the comparison point at the relative temporal position.
